Definition
仟 is the financial/formal variant of 千 (qiān), meaning 'thousand'. It is used exclusively on checks, banknotes, contracts, and official documents to prevent forgery — the complex character makes it harder to alter. You will not encounter 仟 in everyday writing or conversation; use 千 instead for all normal contexts.
